Here’s what you can expect when Negan drops into Fortnite!

One of The Walking Dead’s most vile and intimidating villains is coming to Fortnite. Negan, who appeared prominently in the comic series and TV show, will soon drop into Fortnite with his iconic barbed wire bat, which he affectionately calls “Lucille.” This marks the third Fortnite x The Walking Dead crossover.

However, Negan’s Fortnite skin is based on his comic book appearance rather than Jeffrey Dean Morgan’s portrayal in the TV series. This article details the release date, cost, and a complete look at the new in-game outfit.

Negan Fortnite skin: Release date, first look, and cost

The Negan Fortnite Bundle launches on April 4 and includes four items: the skin, Back Bling, Pickaxe, and Wrap. Apart from the Back Bling, each will be available individually, or you can grab them all via the Bundle. Regarding references, Negan partly became famous for using the barbed wire “Lucille” bat.

Using this weapon, he has beaten down many characters and “walkers,” so it’s only fitting that it becomes his Pickaxe. The zombie head Back Bling is a fun compliment, showing what universe Negan originated in. Negan’s Wrap directly references the many times he smashed his opposition’s heads with Lucille.
